Regular covering is a term in Asymptotic Convex Geometry describing an efficient way to cover a convex body by affine images of the ball. We use a convex-geometric argument to give an extension of Pisier's theorem on the existence of regular covering to the setting of non-symmetric convex bodies (albeit with worse quantitative conclusions).
